This week, for 15 years, a Virginia library has been hosting a weekly Dungeons & Dragons game night for teens. It can get a little wacky. Also, we remember renowned Tennessee luthier, Jean Horner, whose fiddles were played at Carnegie Hall and the Grand Ole Opry. And, a Hare Krishna community in West Virginia serves vegetarian food made in three sacred kitchens.
Our Song of the Week comes from the energetic blues and soul band Southern Avenue. Joining us for their second Mountain Stage appearance, the Memphis-based, GRAMMY-nominated group performed “So Much Love.”
This song is set to appear on Family, the band’s highly anticipated follow-up to their 2021 release Be the Love You Want, due for release on April 25, 2025 via Alligator Records.
Tune in to an affiliate station near you starting Friday, February 14 for the entire set from Southern Avenue, plus live performances from New York folk rock group Driftwood, Kentucky country singer Elvie Shane, singer-songwriter Melissa Ferrick and multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Jeff Plankenhorn.
